The picture above is from my sorority formal on December 1st. It was Darren's first prom-like dance and we had a good time. It was at the same place that Bridget and Joey had their reception, in the same room. The food was really good and over all it was a great night. It started out really hectic because I had to drive to Hanford for an eye doctor appointment earlier in the afternoon, then I came back to Fresno and started to get ready, but I had no idea what to do with my hair, so my sorority sister, Kamaria, spent an hour and a half helping me curl and style my hair. It turned out great, but made me a little too late to go over to Darren's for pre-dance pictures. Oh well, we got some at the sorority house and lots at the dance. The most exciting part of the night was that I convinced Darren to wear a pink tie! He wasn't thrilled with the idea, but it turned out great!

Darren and I exchanged gifts early because we were both really impatient and didn't want to wait until almost Christmas. Darren gave me a BEAUTIFUL promise ring!! I'm so excited!!! I gave him a watch that is engraved on the back.

Finals ended today and I've never been so happy to see a semester end! Hopefully my grades turn out ok. I'm going to miss everyone here in Fresno, but I will come up and visit. And I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled on January 9th, just after my 21st birthday. That should be fun.
